Anri's been slowly becoming more of a fixture at UA High - a sort of strange cryptid that hangs around the 1-A kids. Sometimes she helps with Foundational Heroics, using her frankly overpowered shadow Quirk to construct training dummies and structures to help with Quirk training.

Today, however, she's just serving as an intermediary for an international pro to assist in some classwork - a hero from France named Amelie Amaryllis-White.

(Amelie has found it is remarkably simple to get a hero license when you have the right connections.)

Amelie is smiling as she addresses the class.

"Bonjour! It is an honor to meet all of you, my name is Amelie Amaryllis-White. I'm here today to show you why you need to be cultivating a deeper relationship with your fellow students in the Support course. As such, we'll be having a series of sparring matches. You are allowed to use your full capabilities; meanwhile, I will be relying totally on a variety of support items. If you can force me to use my Quirk, that will count as a win for you!"

Smiling, she pulls out a golden belt shaped like a lock and a pair of keys. Wrapping the belt around her waist, she presses a button on the side of the lock.

SHUT THE DOOR!

Holding up the keys, she inserts each one into the side of the lock-belt, turning them to the side and producing an audible click as the lock closes.

DIAMOND! UNICORN!

She raises her right hand in front of her face, showing off the pink diamond embedded there, and sweeps her arm to the side with a cry of "Henshin!" as golden bubbles of energy rise up around her, popping and fizzing like a flute of champagne.

HOLDING BACK! THE RESTRAINED ELEGANCE!

When the light show is over with, Amelie is wearing a white bodysuit with pink-gold accents. Her feet, hands, and chest are covered in light, flexible-looking armor with the same pink-gold color of her belt, and covering her head is a sleek helmet with two large, compound 'eyes' set beneath a small, spiraling horn. Placing her right hand over her heart, she does a little bow before striking a pose.

"Kamen Rider Yuri, standing back!"

With a flourish, she produces a slim rapier that mimics the design of the horn on her helmet, gesturing with her free hand.

"Who would like to try first?"

"I question why we didn't do that sooner, but then I haven't even figured this was a thing," said Mina, as she got up and got some range before firing a shot of acid at Amelie.

Tooru, who had ducked out of range once her location had been giving up, checked the fabric. It was incredibly hard to tear from a quick check and durable. "Huh," she said. "I can work with this."

Berry calls out from the sidelines.

"I made that from seawater! It's a little bit conductive but it's got good tensile strength!"

Amelie, meanwhile, spins around, the glowing tips of her wings creating a surge of air to deflect the acid.

"Nice," remarked Tooru, moving silently to another position to make an attack on Amelie, leaping out at her from the side to grab onto that wing of hers to drag her down while Mina slid to the side to avoid her own acid -- not that she would be hurt by it.

Amelie dips down from the sudden weight of Toru on her wing but reacts instantly, detaching the shield and rolling towards Mina. Instead of kicking out or trying to stand up, however, she throws herself at Mina's legs, intending on knocking her down.

Mina's surprised by the downwards tackle, and is taken down from the legs as Tooru topples backwards. She hits the ground rolling as she exclaims, "Mina!"

"I'm okay!" Exclaimed Mina, falling backwards.

Amelie kips up into a handstand and flips forward, mounting Mina and holding her down with the full weight of her body.

DIAMOND! UNICORN!
HOLDING BACK! THE RESTRAINED ELEGANCE!

As Amelie hits the button on her Driver, she has a view of the sparkling light from where her wingbow just finished fading away.

CHAINED HEAT! GROWING SABER!!

Wasting no time, she plunges the spinning drill her rapier's become into the ground, being careful to maintain distance from Mina's body. Green light starts to spill from the hole she's just stabbed into the floor, forming into glowing roots that lash out towards where Toru landed, seeking to bind the invisible girl even as her acid-slinging partner is cocooned as well.

Pinned to the ground and the wall, Tooru called out, "Give?"

"Give!" Exclaimed Mina. "I think we'll give this fight."

Amelie nods and removes both keys from her Driver.

AFTERCARE!

The suit and the binding roots vanish into light as Amelie rotates both arms, stretching out before offering Mina a hand up.

"There's a cooldown period after that many Chained Heats, give it a couple minutes before the next set."

With that said, she looks over Mina and Toru.

"Alright! Now, as far as Support items go...Mina, I'm assuming your acid isn't produced ex nihilo? Find someone that specializes in chemistry to analyze it, and you should be able to get portable containers made to store it. Other than that, look into basic martial arts training. How to fall without injuring yourself, the proper way to make a fist, that sort of thing. Toru, the first thing you should do is get an actual outfit; I can make it invisible for you but you need some kind of armor. If you really want to focus on stealth, your best bet is training in how to move silently and how to use sleeper holds. Your gloves are actually quite thick, so you can probably fit something like a taser or a set of lockpicks in there as well."

Tooru reclaimed her gloves and shoes, and rubbed her head a little. "I've never really had to deal with clothing that would go invisible on me, so it never made any sense to wear armor but... if you think it would make a difference...?"

From the sidelines, Aizara called out, "Talk to Midnight on that. She can get you enrolled in the classes you need for things like that."

Mina on the other hand nodded. "Cool, I'll definitely get the support team to look at my acid. Maybe I'll be able to figure out who can work on that for me."

Amelie takes a deep breath and places both hands on Toru's shoulders, silently using her illusion powers to surround herself in shoujou sparkles and flowers while giving Toru her best 'refreshing smile of an elegant older woman'.

"You're a beautiful young woman with a full life ahead of you. Isn't it common sense that the people around you would be happier if you took measures to keep your lovely skin from becoming scarred?"

"Amelie-sensei...!" Tooru sparkled right back, all fluffy bunies and kitties.

Holy crap this was like... the resurgence of Useless Lesbian 2.0.

"You're right! I need to wear better armor! Maybe a leather outfit, to keep myself from being cut up."

That's the spirit! Amelie's smile turns into a grin and she laughs a little before placing a hand on Toru's head and ruffling her hair a bit.

"You have a beautiful smile, Toru."

Sparklesparklesparkle.

"You really think so!" Exclaimed Tooru.

Amelie smiles.

"It's been my policy since I was ten: if I'm talking to a cute girl, I only tell the truth."

Considering.

"It's not like I'm imagining it, you know? I can see you."

To prove it, she gently taps Toru on the nose.

Tooru blushed deeply, clasping her hands to her cheeks. "Thanks," she said, blushing. "I've been invisible since I was little. Couldn't turn it off after all, so..."

"Berry can see you too, you might want to ask her to make your new hero outfit, okay?"

A smile.

"Now, off you get, your classmates are waiting."

"Yeah!" Exclaimed Tooru, skipping away as she was blushing like a schoolgirl, which she was.

"Someone's got a crush," teased Mina.

"You know it," laughed Tooru as she skipped away.

Amelie chuckles a little before pulling out two of her Keys.

SHUT THE DOOR!
MOONSTONE! EARTH PONY!
HOLDING BACK! THE ENERGETIC STRENGTH!

"Now, would anyone else like a turn?"

"I guess I am up," said Momo, excusing herself from the group talking and stepping forward. "Would anyone like to be my partner?"

"I would like to," said Iida, raising his hand. "If you would like to party up."

Momo smiled as she parted her shirt and drew a couple of Tonfa from her breasts before closing it up with the Velcro. "All right, I'm ready. Iida, you're faster, so you can go first."

Iida nodded as he shifted into third gear and burst forward with a shout.

Hm! Now this might be tricky! Amelie summons the Earth Knuckles and slams them together, producing a golden shockwave.

"Honestly, you're one of the ones I'll have trouble dealing with, Tenya! I can only match your sheer speed with my Quirk, after all, so I'm going to have to rely on my excellent dynamic vision and quick reflexes to keep up with you!"

With that, she drops the Earth Knuckles, the weapons shifting to mold themselves to her armored feet.

"Yuri Earth - Shoot Style!"

Tenya grinned under his helmet as he exclaimed, "Then I hope I'll give you a challenge! Reciprocal Burst!"

His leg engines firing, he swung into a double axe kick, aiming for Amelie's forearm as Momo circled, swinging around to her other side to clash her tonfa with a shout.

Amelie simply backflips out of the way, landing on her hands and lashing out at both teens with a pair of kicks that show off that 1: she is extremely flexible, and 2: her skintight bodysuit does at least leave a little to the imagination.

"Weaknesses! Momo, given the things you make, you cannot be totally relying on lipids for your Quirk, you know that, right? You simply don't have the bodymass for that! And Tenya, given the time it takes you to get up to full speed, there's a limit to how fast you can get somewhere! You struggle to close the gap at middle distance, don't you?"

"I've been trying to increase my body mass but it's been tough. I just can't seem to put on the weight to do it!" Exclaimed Momo, creating a sticky bomb from her legs and hurling it at Amelie to detonate around her ankles.

Shifting into second, Iida replied, "I see you have analyzed our strategies, sensei! Nothing less than expected from a guest lecturer! Yes, I have trouble, which is why I need to adjust my speed at every given moment or I stall out!"

Amelie jumps out of the way of the bomb by triggering the shockwave function again, bodily hurling herself into the air before coming down on Tenya in a copy of his earlier axe-kick.

"I'd suggest looking into sumo eating techniques, but that's not what I was getting at, Momo. The only way your Quirk makes sense is if you're using your lipids to kickstart the creation process! Think of it like a car - once you've got it started, it keeps going even if you don't have the pedal down! If you're going full blast the entire time, you end up using more fuel than you need!"

Amelie folds herself nearly in half, bracing her hands against Tenya's shoulders at the moment of impact and throwing herself at Momo in a dropkick.

"Tenya! Your engines add a lot of weight to your kicks even when they aren't activated! When you do activate them, you have an extremely heavy kick that comes out nearly instantly! Have you considered that kicking something at an opponent in the midrange is an extremely effective distraction?"

Tenya dodged backwards, but his engine sputtered, forced to go backwards in reverse all of a sudden as Momo drew another grenade from her chest again. "I'm not entirely certain what else I could use for my powers though," said Momo. "Having a quick source of energy on hand though does seem like an idea however."

Tenya shook his leg to work out the kinks before saying, "Like a ball?"
